This page will eventually contain a series of style guidelines for the Wikipedia:WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology.

It still has a long way to go.

[edit] Diagram guide

The guidelines for creating diagrams for the project can be found in the Molecular and Cellular Biology Diagram Guide.

[edit] Structures

[edit] Proteins

  1. Wikipedia articles about individual proteins or small protein families can be organized so as to look like Myoglobin, Gonadotropin-releasing hormone or Rubisco.
  2. Wikipedia articles about individual proteins or small protein families can each have a protein information box (see Myoglobin for an example).
  3. Each Wikipedia article about individual proteins or small protein families can be organized into one or more wikipedia category. See Whole proteome analysis for needed protein categories. See Cytoskeleton and Category:Cytoskeleton for an example.
  4. The main articles in each wikipedia protein category can be put into a navigation box (see the bottom of Cytoskeleton for an example).

[edit] Naming

[edit] Genes

The abbreviations of genes are according to HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee and written in italic font style (the full names are also written in italic). It is recommended that we use abbreviations instead of the full name. Human gene names are written in capitals, for example ALDOA, INS, etc. For orthologs of human genes in other species, only the initial letter is capitalised, for example mouse Aldoa, bovine Ins, etc.

When we write about the genes this is correct - "the ALDOA gene is regulated...", "the rat gene for Aldoa is regulated..." or "ALDOA is regulated...", while this should not be allowed - "the gene ALDOA is regulated", b/c it's redundant. And if anyone starts arguing with you about it, say "Sorry, but we have a standart to follow" and redirect them to this section. -- Boris 15:32, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Proteins

The same as with the genes, but not in italics. Thus human proteins are written like "THIS", whilst their orthologs in other species are written like "This". -- Boris 15:32, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Protein info box

Info box example for the protein myoblobin (to right).
Note: only the first (start) and last (finish) template are required. The middle three templates (function, location, other) are options.

{{Protbox start}} template:

  • preferred name of the protein
  • image for protein (might be structural diagram, cell localization, etc)
  • caption for image
  • link to gene(s) in database, which gene(s) code for it?
  • link to database entry for protein structural info
  • links to recent articles at Entrez PubMed.

(To support proteins that do not have an image, this template has been broken down into three components: Template:Protbox header, Template:Protbox image, and Template:Protbox topfields. An alternative to the topfields section is provided in Template:Protbox codes, and a simplified version is at Template:Protein.)

{{Protbox function}} template:

  • categorization of the protein; what type of protein is it?
  • functions of the protein
  • structural domains in the protein
  • disease conditions involving the protein

{{Protbox location}} template:

  • taxonomic range of expression (wide? restricted?)
  • which types of cells express it?
  • Subcellular localization.

{{Protbox other}} template:

  • covalent modifications with functional significance
  • all names that have been applied to the protein
  • what other molecules interact with it?
  • links to wikipedia pages that discuss the protein

{{Protbox enzyme}} template:

  • What reaction it catalyses
  • The cofactors involved in the reaction
  • Method enzyme is regulated

{{Protbox receptor}} template:

  • Receptor actions, e.g. vasoconstriction, neuronal excitation, etc.
  • Agonists
  • Antagonists

{{Protbox finish}} template:

  • This template simply marks the end of a protein information box. (required)

[edit] Cell type info box

This will be an information box for displaying basic information about individual cell types.
List of distinct cell types in the adult human body

Some useful references:

Basic info could be, name(s), functions, what taxonomic groups has the cell type, etc.
Tissue type(s) that contain the cell type
The major types of proteins that are expressed and that provide the specialized functions of the cell type

I suggest we pick one cell type as an example and get started. I propose skeletal muscle.

[edit] Database templates

Templates like this ({{OMIM}}) for the Protein databases, Enzyme Number and PubMed. You'll find these very useful when citing your sources.
